Are there any details missing from that? I had a similar starting salary out of college, but was only approved for a $250k loan at the time.

3-4 years is not long term. The best I've seen is roughly 1%. Even then, you're technically still loosing value assuming inflation is where its supposed to be.

If you're serious about long term, invest your money. Don't save it.
